9.18.2024: HCW: Issue #4: General & Romantic: Bianca Moore

I wanted to do one more post for Headcanon Wednesday. This is just a post that has a collection of headcanons that I kind of thought of along the years. These have been living rent free in my head.

I'm going to tag @sliceoflifeshepard for some Bianca general headcanons. @prehistoric-creatures for Sephiroth and Bia. :)

5 General Headcanons for Bianca Moore

Bianca often retreats into dreamscapes she creates, where she connects with lost souls and seeks guidance. These interactions ground her amidst the emotional chaos she experiences due to her corrupted powers.

Bianca's career as a romance novelist serves as a therapeutic outlet, helping her process the trauma of Shinra's experiments. Her stories are infused with themes of eternal love, and loss, mirroring her own journey with Sephiroth.

Bianca sees herself as an avenging force, compelled to deliver swift retribution against those who have betrayed her. Her relentless pursuit of vengeance intertwines with her devotion to Sephiroth, prioritizing power over compassion. For her, justice is about reclaiming control, punishing the deserving, rather than protecting the innocent.

Because of her celestial empathy, Bianca is highly sensitive to the emotions of others, which can overwhelm her. She’s learned to set emotional boundaries to avoid being consumed by the despair of others, but this also makes her appear distant or cold.

Bianca often gazes at the stars, feeling a profound connection to her lost home in the Celestial Realm. Each star represents a memory or a loved one she left behind, fueling her longing to return but also reminding her of the love she has for Sephiroth.

5 General Headcanons for Bianca and Sephiroth’s Relationship:

In combat, their synergy is flawless. Bianca’s spatial and reality-bending abilities complement Sephiroth’s prowess with the Masamune, creating a terrifying force that few can withstand. They rarely need to speak, understanding each other’s movements instinctively

While Bianca respects Sephiroth's authority and leadership, there are moments when her need for independence causes friction. She occasionally challenges his decisions, especially when she feels they harm their shared destiny.

Both Bianca and Sephiroth share the influence of Jenova, which strengthens a bond between them, but not their soul-bond. However, this shared connection can make their relationship volatile, as Jenova’s manipulations sometimes amplify their darker traits.

Trust is a core element in their relationship. Bianca gives Sephiroth control in many aspects of their lives together, but she draws the line when it comes to her autonomy, insisting on keeping her independence despite their deep connection.

While Bianca sees herself as an angel of retribution for Sephiroth, he has an unspoken need to protect her from harm, especially from those who might seek to manipulate or hurt her. Despite his cold demeanor, Sephiroth feels a deep responsibility to keep Bianca safe, even from herself at times.

They both share a sense of awe at each other’s power. While their relationship is founded on deep emotional ties, they find it thrilling to witness each other in combat or using their respective abilities. There’s a mutual admiration for the strength they bring out in one another.

5 Cute Headcanons for Bianca and Sephiroth:

One of their most cherished moments together is stargazing. Bianca enjoys using her celestial awareness to teach Sephiroth about the stars, creating constellations that represent their intertwined fates.

Sephiroth, with his long silver hair, often allows Bianca to braid it after a long day. It’s a quiet, intimate moment that allows her to express her affection in a tender, caring way.

Despite their often serious and intense relationship, Sephiroth has a special nickname for Bianca — “Dove” — a nod to her celestial origins. In turn, she calls him “her Silvered god.”

Bianca tries to cook for Sephiroth as a way of showing her love, though she’s not the best in the kitchen. The results are often hilariously bad, with Sephiroth giving a rare smirk as she apologizes for burning their meals.

After their battles or moments of intense emotion, Sephiroth will silently reach for Bianca’s hand, and they’ll spend hours just sitting together, feeling each other's presence. It’s one of the few times they can let their guard down and simply be vulnerable with one another.

9.18.2024: HCW: Issue #3: Symbolism: Bianca Moore

Good morning, everyone. It's 11 am here. Can it still be considered morning? This is for the Creator's Club's event today.

For today's Headcanon Wednesday, I decided upon talking about the parallels between Bianca and Sephiroth and Hades and Persephone, as the current iteration of their relationship is supposed to have that in it. It's so important to their relationship, so they don't end up resembling a relationship like Harley Quinn and Joker. Most of Sephiroth's reactions are inspired by how he viewed Jenova initially.

I'm going to tag you @megandaisy9 since we were kind of talking about symbolism and parallels of characters and historical figures, etc.

Content Warnings: Emotional distress, themes of entrapment, exile, loss, dark fantasy elements, psychological struggle, and references to mythology.

In the dreamscape Sephiroth crafted for Bianca, the two often share private moments dancing under the eternal moonlight. Despite his usually stoic nature, Sephiroth takes her hand, and they float together gracefully beneath the stars. It's their way of celebrating their love, away from the chaos of Gaia and destiny, as if time itself pauses for them.

Knowing how much Bianca misses being able to retire to the Celestial Realm when she grew weary of the world, Sephiroth fills the dreamscape with celestial flowers that glow in the moonlight. Each time they visit, he surprises her with new blossoms that mirror her emotions, from glowing white lilies for peace to deep purple roses when she feels melancholy. These flowers never wither, symbolizing the permanence of their bond.

One of Sephiroth’s favorite moments with Bianca is when they lie in the soft grass of the dreamscape, staring up at the stars together. He doesn’t speak much during these times, but he secretly loves when she tells him stories about the constellations from stories that her mother told her. It’s a peaceful escape for both of them, allowing Sephiroth to glimpse the world through her eyes.

In a rare display of tenderness, Sephiroth created a small garden within the dreamscape that only Bianca can tend to. It’s her sanctuary, where she can grow whatever she desires, and each plant reflects a memory or feeling they’ve shared. Whenever Bianca feels overwhelmed, she returns to the garden and finds comfort in nurturing their love in a space where it can flourish undisturbed. Also, in this garden, Bianca has filled it with flowers that represent her love for Sephiroth. Each bloom signifies a moment they’ve shared, and they often tend to this garden together, cultivating it as a symbol of their love flourishing even in darkness.

Though Sephiroth trapped Bianca on Gaia, he constantly reassures her in small, meaningful ways that she will never be alone. On rare nights, beneath the eternal moonlight, he reaffirms his vows to her, promising that while she may never return to the Celestial Realm, she will always have a home in his heart. It’s in these moments that his walls crumble, and he reveals his deepest fears of losing her, making their bond even stronger.

In the dreamscape Sephiroth created, he often places celestial flowers in Bianca’s hair, adorning her with a crown of eternal blossoms. The act, though simple, is symbolic of how he sees her as his queen, his counterpart in both power and beauty.

While Sephiroth will never let Bianca return to the Celestial Realm, he tries to recreate elements of it for her. In their dreamscape, he has seasons shift in subtle ways, bringing elements of spring—her angelic connection to life and rebirth—into their otherwise dark, moonlit world.

Sephiroth doesn’t sing often, but there are times when Bianca feels overwhelmed or lost in her thoughts. In these rare moments, he hums an ancient melody from Gaia that echoes through their dreamscape, a tune he learned during his time in the Lifestream. It always calms her.

Like the myth of Persephone and Hades, their relationship is filled with contrasts. When Bianca walks through the shadows, her wings glow with a faint celestial gold, while Sephiroth’s silver hair shimmers in the darkness. Together, they are a vision of light and shadow intertwined. Since the dreamscape tends to slightly awaken her celestial blood.

Bianca has a fondness for pomegranates, a subtle nod to the myth of Persephone’s bond to the Underworld. Sephiroth occasionally brings her these fruits, their seeds glowing like tiny stars. Sharing them has become a quiet ritual, their way of acknowledging the inescapable bond they share.

Sephiroth often gifts Bianca ethereal tokens in their dreamscape, like flowers made of moonlight or shadowy crystals. Each offering symbolizes his promise to always cherish her, much like how Hades offers Persephone pomegranate seeds to ensure her return.

Though separated by distance and physical barriers, their dreamscape serves as a sacred space for them to explore their love. In this realm, they can share their fears, dreams, and desires, giving Bianca a sense of agency and connection she lacks in the waking world.

Bianca sees her situation as a reflection of Persephone's choice to stay in the Underworld. While she feels trapped in the North Crater, she understands that her love for Sephiroth requires sacrifices. This understanding deepens their bond, as both carry the weight of their choices and destinies.

They have moonlit picnics in their dreamscape, where Bianca prepares ethereal food that Sephiroth enjoys. They sit together, sharing laughter and stories as they eat, reminiscent of Persephone and Hades’ quiet moments in the Underworld, enjoying the simple joys of each other’s company.

In the dreamscape, Bianca often playfully teases Sephiroth, which brings out his rarely seen lighter side. He responds with a smirk or a subtle chuckle, showing that even in the depths of despair, they can find lightheartedness together, much like the gentle playfulness between Persephone and Hades.

At the end of each dreamscape meeting, they share a heartfelt embrace, a moment where time stands still. This embrace symbolizes the eternal connection they share, mirroring the bond between Persephone and Hades, where their love transcends the boundaries of the realms.

9.18.2024: HCW: Issue #2: Daily Life: Bianca Moore

Good morning everyone. I am still filling out my tag system for the Final Fantasy 7 side of Fantasy Worlds Collide, so this blog will be filled with lots of headcanons.

As a member and founder of the Creator's Club, I decided to combine my personal HCW with the Creator's Club's HCW event. This is still exploring Bianca Moore's character, Sephiroth, and her downfall. At this point, I have no plans on redeeming Bianca. She is a baddie: through and through.

Someone, please shake Bianca and wake her up. That man isn't good for her. lol.

Content Warnings: blood offerings, body possession, cannibalism (soul siphoning), dark magic, death, emotional manipulation, graphic violence, infernal magic, manipulation, mind control, obsessive behavior, physical intimacy, religious imagery, rituals, self-harm, soul consumption, spiritual manipulation, toxic relationship.

Bianca’s morning and evening routines at the North Crater are deeply interconnected with her role as Sephiroth’s protector / lover and her own self-imposed duty as a ‘Priestess to Jenova’. In the mornings, Bianca rises before dawn. She will go over to the exposed Lifestream and siphon spirit energy from it. Once her celestial and infernal blood was awaken, she doesn’t need human food to survive. Her meals are the souls and life force she extracts from the Lifestream.

With the dark dragon, she will exit the Northern Caves and begin to patrol the crater, ensuring that the barrier that Sephiroth had placed over it remains intact. Her routine is methodical and focused. It is a reflection upon her determination to preserve the crater as a place of power that will serve for Sephiroth’s rebirth. She takes great care to monitor any disturbances or threats, using her infernal magic to eliminate any intruders that may pass through. If the barrier is weakened, she alerts Sephiroth right away through their soul-bond. This devotion to this task shows her unwavering loyalty to Sephiroth, and to a lesser extent, Jenova, as well as her rejection of wanting to return to her former life.

As the day progresses, Bianca’s routine shifts from patrolling to preforming rituals meant to strengthen her bond with Jenova and Sephiroth. These rituals that she conducts in solitude often involves blood offerings — her blood — and energy drawn from the Lifestream. She will often train with Noctemaris, as Solstice has rejected her after her fall from Grace, in the chamber where Sephiroth’s body is rejuvenating. When alone, she will often compose dark poetry and prose, using her words to express her emotions, her devotion to Sephiroth, and her new fascination with power and destruction. As she traveled from Nibelheim to the North Crater with SC X, Bianca collected Sephiroth’s black feathers when he possessed SC X to protect her. She treasures each feather, wearing them under her spaulders, using them as quills and during dark rituals. She uses the feathers as both a focus for channeling energy and a symbol of her unwavering connection to him.

Her connection to Sephiroth is both emotional and spiritual. All of her actions in the crater reflect this. Though she will often act like his lover, there is a sense of reverence in her actions — and his own — as she sees Sephiroth as the god he wants to be.

In the evenings, Bianca’s routine is more about introspection. She will retreat to a secluded part of the crater where she meditates, drawing upon the chaotic energy of the place to center herself and maintain her strength. Her evening prayers are not for salvation but rather power, pleading for Sephiroth’s return to full strength. Bianca finds solace amidst the icy atmosphere of the crater, where she feels most aligned with Sephiroth’s vision.

As night falls, Bianca sleeps very little as her mind is too preoccupied with Sephiroth’s revival and their shared future. When she does rest, it is is brief and punctuated by dark dreams or visits to the dream-scape that Sephiroth has erected in her mind to resemble the Celestial Realm as Bianca is exiled from Heaven.

On several occasions, Sephiroth will take control of one of the Sephiroth Clones (SC X) to initiate physical intimacy with Bianca: sort of like how he messes with Cloud’s mind with the clones. Through these moments, he asserts his presence and deepens their bond, reminding Bianca of their connection, even if his true form is laying dormant and regenerating. She will engage Sephiroth in philosophical discussions, exploring their views on power, destiny, and their shared ambition. Every aspect of her routine, from meditation and collecting his feathers to patrolling the barrier and making sure his true form is ready for his ascension, reflects her dedication to darkness and her desire to remain bound to him.
